Three-Dimensional Simulations of a Starburst-Driven Galactic Wind

open access: yes, 2007
We have performed a series of three-dimensional simulations of a starburst-driven wind in an inhomogeneous interstellar medium. The introduction of an inhomogeneous disk leads to differences in the formation of a wind, most noticeably the absence of the `

A Unified Three-dimensional Magnetohydrodynamic Model of the Solar Corona, Solar Wind, and Global Heliosphere with Turbulence Transport

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present results from a unified three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic model of the solar corona, solar wind, and global heliosphere that incorporates turbulence transport.

The Local Leo Cold Cloud and New Limits on a Local Hot Bubble

open access: yes, 2011
We present a multi-wavelength study of the local Leo cold cloud (LLCC), a very nearby, very cold cloud in the interstellar medium. Through stellar absorption studies we find that the LLCC is between 11.3 pc and 24.3 pc away, making it the closest known ...

Physical properties of dust particles around white dwarf in far infrared sky at 12.8o galactic latitude

open access: yesBibechana, 2017
We study the  active region in the interstellar medium in which the process of cavity formation is expected. The interaction between wind and its surroundings in the interstellar medium (ISM) provides a laboratory to study the behavior of dust particles.

Determining the Interstellar Wind Longitudinal Inflow Evolution Using Pickup Ions in the Helium Focusing Cone

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The size, shape, and composition of the heliosphere are affected by its interaction with the local interstellar medium. A means of quantifying this interaction is by measuring the relative motion of the two media.

APPLICATION OF NUMERICAL METHODS TO MODELING THE STELLAR WIND AND INTERSTELLAR MEDIUM INTERACTION

open access: yes, 1998
We present a review of the application of numerical methods to solve the problem of the stellar/solar wind with the local interstellar medium. Most of approaches described are developed by the authors. They include both purely gas dynamic and magnetohydrodynamic methods.

Scatter-free pickup ions beyond the heliopause as a model for the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) ribbon

open access: yes, 2010
We present new kinetic-gasdynamic model of the solar wind interaction with the local interstellar medium. The model incorporates several processes suggested by McComas et al.

An Anisotropic Plasma Model of the Heliospheric Interface

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a pioneering model of the interaction between the solar wind and the surrounding interstellar medium that includes the possibility of different pressures in directions parallel and perpendicular to the magnetic field.

Numerical study on the interaction of AGN winds and interstellar medium

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
ABSTRACT Accretion disc winds can leave active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and interact with the interstellar medium (ISM) of their host galaxies. We perform two-dimensional numerical simulations to investigate the interaction of AGN winds and ISM.

Shocks, Compressible Perturbations, and Intermittency in the Very Local Interstellar Medium: Voyager 1 and 2 Observations and Numerical Modeling

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The Voyager spacecraft (V1 and V2) provide unique in situ measurements of perturbations propagating beyond the heliopause through the very local interstellar medium (VLISM), including the shocks and pressure fronts whose origin is debated. In particular,
